SCT-2 is based on a modern, non-cooled microbolometric detector, offering a resolution of 640×480 pixels, operating within the spectrum scope between 8 and 14 μm. SCT-2 makes it possible to detect a standard NATO target (2.3×2.3 meters) at distances of 3.2 kilometres. The sight has been tailored for being used with a Picatinny rail.
